Biography

Mani Ratnam (born June 2, 1956, Madras, India) is a leading movie maker (screen writer and director) of the Indian film industry. He was educated at Jamnalalal Bajaj Insitute of Management, a noted management school in India. He got into film direction with the help of his late brother, film producer G. Venkateswaran. Mani Ratnam consistently chooses realistic contemporary themes and complex plots for his movies in an industry often accused of making commercial, fairy-tale-like, formulaic movies (also called Masala Movies). His movies are generally in the Tamil language, but are usually also dubbed into other languages like Telugu and Hindi, owing to their national appeal. He has also made films in other languages like Hindi, Malayalam, Telugu and Kannada. Mani Ratnam is widely known for his ability to tread the middle way between artistic cinema and commercial cinema, working out a perfect recipe for all kinds of audience. His movies are noted for their brilliance in technical aspects like art direction, cinematography and background score. Of late, his talent has come to be acknowledged at an international level also. In 2002, he was awarded the Padma Shri.
